(Freedom of speech is still allowed in this country last time I looked) It was told me that she was very prejudiced in her dealing with a schooling matter and despite eight years of evidence proving that the father of the child had constantly resiled agreements for the child, lied to her personally and been addressed for committing perjury , that he, his wife and parents had bad mouthed the mother to the child, and he had held the child at a school for two years at a school where she had been bullied Judge Southwick ruled in his favour to move the child to a school where these same children would be attending intermediate. The mother had laid a complaint (as have several other parents and teachers) regarding issues of bullying at the school and in response the school Principal had told parents she was crazy (she said told her by the father) and that the child was damaged because of family court proceedings. The lawyer for child David Rice had been told all of this repeatedly and the child had also told him that she did not want to go to the fathers house during the week because of the issues her father was creating this. David Rice never put this in a court report. The mother after being abused by Judge Southwick left the court proceedings who damned a doctor who had stated that the child was experiencing anxiety and would be better home schooled because of the issues. Whirinaki have advised that the coparenting relationship does not work also. Southwick failed to consider this. After the mother left the court proceedings the Judge, the mothers ex partner and his wife (a lawyer) sat in court attacking her character and suggesting she was a slut. The child is refusing to go to the fathers and the courts behaviour is alienating the child from him. The family court is silent. People that speak up often have their children taken off them and if they dare to use the word abuse the are labelled as alienators. Franklin Family Support suggested this man is narcissistic, emotionally abusive and possibly has aspergers. This is Lawyers and judges gaming the system to make money whilst throwing children (and often fathers relationships with their children) under the bus. CYFS are making money out of it too. CYFS have supported the father in this matter throughout because the father dared to tell them that Franklin Family Support suggested he was emotionally abusive. Family court proceedings can go on for over a decade and cost several hundreds of thousands of dollars if a parent is intent on getting custody of their child. It financially and emotionally cripples (oftentimes) the good parent. I have read so many court reports from affected parties I now turn them upside down and normally get it right as to what is going on. It is legalised abuse our national disgrace and it must stop.

Many separated parents contact me with their stories and I am very concerned with what is happening to children in these situations. If someone leaves a marriage because there has been abuse they are typically forced into 50/50 shared care situations (especially if they can't afford lawyers or emotional grief that goes on for years).The mantra is bad partner good parent but this is not the reality and that parent then has free reign to behave badly to their child - legally and the other parent often does not know what is happening when the child is with them. For this reason I have also heard people have been told by social services agencies (being aware that the status quo is 'shared care' and the dangers this puts children in) that they stay in the relationship as they have more control over what happens to their child. If people see or hear a child being treated in an improper manner please report it. It takes a village to raise a child and it takes a village to keep them safe. Similarly I have also had reports of police suggesting to a child they are wrong for not wanting to be with one parent and that legally they will force them to. This is invalidating their experience. A child often does not want to be with one parent because they are behaving badly towards them or abusing them. When a adult says no it is listened to, it should be no different for a child. Please keep kids safe and call the authorities if you see or hear a child being mistreated.
